Or better still after 9 say you were not going to race again then let them bribe you to do "just 1 more!"

Re: Magic sports question
Given this too much thought and I can't think of one where 10 games is enough to get you earning anything decent unless you could work on contacts, some social media presence beforehand.
So I'd choose football just for the enjoyment of being by far the best player on the pitch. A combination of ronaldinho and Messi taking the piss. I'd at least set up a YouTube channel to document the journey and perhaps it would get me some attention before the 10 games or someone breaks my leg.Comment

How long is a game of poker? One hand? Or one session?Comment

Re: Magic sports question
It doesn't say whether you can show this brilliance in training or practice before your first game. This, I reckon, is where football wins. If you can, you can go around from club to club begging for opportunities. Go to a big, big club. Spin some yarn, demonstrate serious skills. They'll look at you. Be amazing in training. They ask you to come back as you're that good. You start training with them. You keep being amazing. You play a couple of friendlies. You're awesome. Get signed up on a long term contract. Play 8 games where you're a world beater. Job done.Originally posted by Trigger View PostComment

It's come up a few times already. You can't just decide to be an F1 driver, even if you drive like peak Schumacher. You've only got the ability 10 times.Originally posted by Moodybluebird View PostComment

It's got to be golf. Win the UK amateur championship gets you a wildcard into the British open. Win that as an amateur and then turn pro, win 8 majors and live happily ever after.Comment

Re: Magic sports question
Thinking about it, F1 might be the worst. Even if you get a drive and it goes well, what happens after your ability goes?
If you decide to drive, you'll never qualify for another race, and may even kill yourself or someone else while trying. And if you refuse to race, their lawyers will bankrupt you.Comment

Re: Magic sports question
It would take 4 days to win each tournament. You wouldn't even have the time to establish yourself to qualify for the Amateur Championship.Originally posted by Bald Barry Bastad View Post
Even if you were already good enough to get into UK Amateur, the most you could hope for is to win the British Open and then fall spectacularly from the top of the leaderboard on day 3 of your next tournamentComment

Re: Magic sports question
Amazing how in depth this thread has gone. Analysed to the nth degree, posters contradicted & corrected, detailed explanations of how one would go about it & dodge the rules & pitfalls (me included). It’s a wizard giving magic powers, it’s like ripping a Grimm’s fairy tale to bits claiming it’s too far fetched.:hehe:Comment

Lardy, think you're taking this far too seriously.
In any case, I would retire after my 10th race lolComment

Re: Magic sports question
the rules are starting from where you are today, you can become the best in the world at a chosen sport for the next 10 times you compete in it.Originally posted by Moodybluebird View Post
So unless you already have a seat at an F1 team ( and one of the best ones at that) then it isn't going to do you much good.Comment
